Summary: This month is 42.7% worse than last year in terms of dollars or real estate sold and 22.4% worse as far as the number of homes sold. The only small bright spots in this report worth talking about is the days on the market are less this year than last and that the number of homes sold this month was closer to last years numbers than the March numbers. What does this mean to you? Price it right and low than the market to get it sold and get attention in the crowd! This is not the time to play with the market just get your home sold. Remember that for every 1% that the interest rates go up your home becaomes on average 9-10% less affordable for the buy who has a mortgage and thus puts presure on you to need to reduce the price. The big question most sellers forget to take into account is what it will cost me not to accept the offer? Really make sure your house available for every showing possible! Buyers the interest rates are going to go up and probably substantially which will largely erase any gains you think you might get by waiting for the market to adjust down more. Be sure to take advantage of the up to $8000 first time home buyer tax credit when buying as it does not have to be paid back unless you sell in the first three years. Don't forget to take all the factors in to consideration as price is only one of the pieces in the affordability puzzle. If you are interested in selling your property or are looking for a good deal to buy then just give me a call. Craig Harding RE/MAX Rivergate in Ocoee TN 423-338-7300 or Direct at 423-650-4422
